Egg Muffins

Busy mornings are quickly approaching my house since the girls are heading back to school (preschool!). Mornings are already a little busy around here, and thats just with me trying to get myself out the door for work. Then you add the factor of getting two little girls dressed, teeth brushed, breakfast ready, and lunches packed ….it basically equals to a CRAZY house! And lets face it, the first week of a new school year always has an adjustment period.

The past few weeks with my new change to a Paleo “diet” (lifestyle) I have been working to plan meals ahead. And this change is actually great because it helps me to plan the whole families meals ahead of time, including the most important meal of the day…breakfast. These muffins are my new go-to recipe and the perfect recipe for the upcoming busy mornings. These muffins are delicious, family-friendly, and fast and easy! All things that make my mornings a little easier. The best part is you can make a big batch of egg muffins and have breakfast already prepared for the entire week. Once they are baked all you have to do is store them in refrigerator and in the morning reheat and go. Like I said, fast and easy! And they are packed with protein, which will get everyone in the house off to a good start. They definitely beat having a cereal bar, bagel, or other other gluten filled product. Those just leave you with no energy and hungry only an hour later. Eggs are a great way to jump start the whole families day and it also helps that they leave you energized and off to a productive day. Enjoy!

[…] have barely made a dent in the food we bought so I am really happy. This week I cooked some little egg muffins (I got 18 out of this recipe) for morning/afternoon tea snacks (I have been having one for lunch […]

Hi Catrina, I wrap the muffins individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer zip lock bag. Then I take them out at night and place in the frig. Then in the morning just heat them up. I have no problems with consistency either.

Wow!! My son would LOVE these…and he doesn’t love much!! So glad I found you…new to Paleo Lifestyle and just searching for resources. I love to cook!!
Thanks so much for the kid friendly section…makes me feel good introducing Paleo to my fam and having the not feel “strange”…

I encourage having more than one. I usually have two muffins when I make these for my breakfast. It all depends on if I worked out first thing in the morning too. If I did I sometimes have two muffins plus some good carb like berries or sweet potato.
Enjoy and welcome to Paleo. It has changed my like so I hope you enjoy the road to better health.

[…] I figured it was time to make breakfast. Breakfast is Adams favorite time of day. I found this recipe. So, I chopped up more veggies… I think the greens are a form of BokChoy (SO CHEAP!) some red […]

I made these last Sunday to have for breakfast during the week. I used hot Italian turkey sausage, and I didn’t have spinach, so I just put in some green peppers. They turned out great! And, they really do heat up nicely, so we had a ready made breakfast each day during the week! And, we would eat 2 at a time, also! A great change from the normal, and it cut out any morning kitchen work, which I was totally stoked about!

[…] This recipe for egg muffins seems pretty easy, but I’m not sure how well they’d taste the next day (if there were any leftovers). These seem great as a grab and go option (minus the chicken sausage). Actually, it might be totally weird to be seen walking around eating portable eggs. BUT HEY I love eggs! […]

[…] make a big batch of these paleo egg mufins in advance, so they’re ready to grab and go. This egg muffin recipe comes from Heather and her Multiply Delicious blog, where she posts plenty of paleo recipes. […]

Whole Foods does have great chicken sausage available in a variety of different flavors in their meat counter/section. I also get a pork breakfast sausage from US Wellness Meat that I’ve used before too.

[…] things to your liking. I was originally led to make this recipe through the paleo egg muffins on Multiply Delicious, but I ended up changing it so much to suit my own tastes that I wanted to share this version with […]

These muffins came out so good! Such a great breakfast. The only thing is I had a hard time getting them out of the pan.I liberally buttered the muffin tin before hand but they still stuck. Any suggestions?

These are easy to make and make an egg-cellent (sorry couldn’t resist) quick and easy morning breakfast. I think substituting the meat for cheese might make them a bit more moist. I made them a few days ago and just pop them in the microwave for about 20 s. I find that cutting them in half adding a bit of cheese and microwaving them a few second longer makes them perfect.

Also I substituted dried basil in them and I think there is a bit too much. I will probably only use 1 tbls next time.
